Ranking for non-existent Keyword

I must admit that I still suck at spelling that some of my readers politely remind me of it (thanks to them). Other times, I just discover them days or weeks later when checking for search referrals.


One such incident is my post about Friendster Ads. My original entry spelled it Frienster, without the “d”.

The following day after posting that, I got some hits for the keyword “frienster” in Google. Realizing I made a spelling error, I immediately corrected it (though I know I’d be loosing visits from the serps after that.)

More than a week later, I still ranked 3rd in Google.com.ph for the “frienster” keyword, even though Google has re-crawled that page and updated its cache:

Friendster

That shouldn’t be the case. My blog should have dropped off the serps for it. Is it a bug of some sorts? And no it’s not a case of Google-bombing.

Will ask around.

    google or even yahoo or msn robots thinks the keywords ‘friendster’ and ‘frienster’ are different and stores them separately on their machines.

    I also notice the same thing. I think Google doesn’t care much or is keeping some sort of past cache of keywords.
